Smartphones DM6 blackBerry and Desktop.log

Hi all

I've recently upgraded to DM6 and find a Desktop.log in my profile. How can I disable or change the path to a different directory?

Kind regards

SUCCESS!

It is possible to redirect the log files by using the config file!

Close the Blackberry Desktop Software. (confirm its really closed in the Manager of tasks, even mine never really)

Make a backup of the 'Rim.Desktop.exe.config' file located in your Desktop Software Directory

Now open the 'Rim.Desktop.exe.config' file located in your desktop software directory by using Notepad.

Look for the lines (8 and 9 on my system):


     

replace:

value = "% {DesktopLogPath} property."

with:

value="C:\temp\Blackberry\Desktop.log".

or any other place you want to use for the log file of office.

Then look for lines (21-22 on my system):


     

replace:

value = "% {UsageLogPath} property."

with:

value="C:\temp\Blackberry\Usage.log".

Then look for lines (33-34 on my system):


     

replace:

value = "% {ExceptionLogPath} property."

with:

value="C:\temp\Blackberry\Exception.log".

Restart the Desktop Softare and now, your log files will be created in your new location and NOT in your roaming profile!

You will always have the AutoUdate log in your roaming profile, but the same technique should work using the file "Rim.Desktop.AutoUpdate.exe.config".

  • BlackBerry Smartphones to Blackberry and very confused Newbie

    Hello everyone.  My name is Mohamed and I am relatively new to the blackberry Pearl 8100.  I've done a few things with him, but I know the reputation of Blackberry and knows he can do MUCH more.  I just can't understand this.  First of all, I read the posts on this site ALL day but I get lost with the acronyms.  If someone could tell me it please their significance, I'd appreciate it. Then maybe I can find the answers to the following two questions:

    1. How can I get my outlook and my blackberry to work together?  Can I get my addresses from outlook to my Pearl?
    2. Why do I not take photos that are saved on my press card and save them in my phone n command to get the Destop Manager?
    3. I have the SAME problem as a gentleman named Xavier and his post, I have included in this message. "I have an interesting problem with my Blackberry Pearl (8130). Every morning when I wake up the phone are always frozen on the same screen. Nothing seems to work except by holding down the power button until it stops. The screen is white (white) except at the Summit he said "Voice Dialing" then just below that "address book scanning for entries...» "or something like that, then right below 0%. She's. Every morning I have to restart my phone which is obviously quite annoying. Can I turn off the voice dialing somehow? I do not use it all. Is this a common problem? Suggested corrections? "Thank you, Xavier.

    I thought that mine is due to my bluetooth not turn off during the night and laying next to the Pearl, but once I turned it off and it continues I thought I was going crazy.  Also on my phone I can't hold the power button to get out, I have to disable the phone completely: out of the battery and the SIM card and then turn on the phone again when this happends.

    Please, any help you guys can give me would be great.

    Thank you!

    Insofar as this comment "have you improved the BB OS 4.5 recently.

    What is BB and how do I change the operating system? My current OS is 4.3

    You are welcome.

    BB = BlackBerry.

    A multimedia card constantly scanning sometimes occurs after the upgrade of the unit to the 4.5 OS and in this case is probably not your problem. May be, however. You have a memory card in the device, if you do, remove a few days and see if the problem persists and we will resolve this to find out what the problem is.

  • Smartphones Pocketmac blackBerry and Blackberry 9530 Storm

    I need to sync my new blackberry to my new Mac computer. I downloaded the last Pocketmac but it will not sync my Blackberry and my Mac. I uninstalled and reinstalled. The 9530 is fairly recent. Does anyone know if the Pocketmac is not able to sync the phone because it's so new? Any help is appreciated!

    What version of Mac OS you are using?  My mac could not find my BB storm. I fixed it by upgrading my OS in Mac OS X 10.5.6 to 10.5.7 and pocketmac both pilot updated. The problem is resolved.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones Windows 7 and Desktop Manager

    Hi, I have a 8700 c runs the last device from AT & T (4.5.110) software.  I recently installed Windows 7 Build 7000, and I can't connect with my BB via USB.  Office Manager starts and begins to communicate via USB, then crashes.  If I disconnect and reconnect the USB, the program quickly continues, but I am unable to sync or to downgrade the software for the device.

    I'm not trying to use the media, just the Desktop Manager Manager.  I'vetried to reinstall Desktop Manager 4.7 and 4.6; also the software of the device.  I tried Troubleshooting compatibility for the Desktop Manager and the charger.

    Nothing seems to help.  My computer is a Thinkpad T60.

    If anyone has any ideas, I would appreciate it.

  • Confused BlackBerry Smartphones with Blackberry Storm Desktop Manager

    The Roxio program platform is really confusing me. I'm used to a Palm application and can't quite get the hang of this thing.

    My biggest problem is that I can't find a way to use my computer to add contacts instead of on the phone. This program is an application where you can use the laptop to add information and new contacts and then synchronize with the phone?

    I figured out how to add video (although its easier by using the mass media and simply drag / drop), add pictures and Itunes sync but contacts seem to be non-existent.

    As always, thanks in advance!

    the Palm is 'Connector PC' + 'PIM' (personal information manager)
    the RIM is just "PC connector.

    In addition to the Desktop Manager, you must use a PIM on your desktop. Best solutions are Microsoft Outlook or IBM Lotus Notes. Both allow you to edit your contacts on your PC and then synchronize with your BlackBerry smartphone.

    or you can use GoogleMail contacts, with real-time wireless synchronization. This solution does not require a PC.

  • Message from blackBerry Smartphones between blackberry and pc emails

    Hi I have a Blackberry curve and I get hundreds of emails "this message is used to carry data between your BlackBerry handheld and a home server. Please do not delete, move, or reply to this message - it will be processed by the server. "There must be a setting that I put in wrong place, but I can't find what the problem is.  I had a different curve but he had to go back because it was defective and I got this email for a day or two, but then it stopped.  Since I was the replacement phone which is more than a week a go, I get loads. Can anyone help or I'll run out of use before a fortnight.  Thanks in advance for your help. Christine

    Hello and welcome to the Forums of Support BlackBerry.com.

    Reason: You have installed Desktop Manager by using the option "Desktop Redirector".

    Step 1: If you are not using redirector, you must uninstall Desktop Manager, and then reinstall it using the BlackBerry Internet Service option.

    Step 2: On your device, go to: Options > Advanced > maintenance book and remove any service books for [office]

  • Problems of Smartphones from blackBerry using Desktop Manager

    Thanks to all those of you who are trying to help us with problems. I just spent 2-3 hours reading through different positions, work on my list of questions, etc. I'm not a fast reader, unfortunately. And even glancing to the area of my specific questions, I learned some things. Unfortunately, I have so many questions, it is difficult to imagine how I can find the time to follow along. I have one of those jobs that usually takes much of my time, so sometimes, I may not able to check my personal email for several days.

    But this message because he talks to set up the Office Manager, which I had trouble with. But I can't figure out how to get the answers I need. A major problem that I find irritating, it's when I start the DM he always tries to set up the e-mail... I've set up 3 emails that are sent to my BBy, and I am happy with that. One of them is MS Outlook since one of my jobs. But I can't seem to set up something that works to prevent this return each time I start up. I don't know what I'm doing when I'm trying to configure... all the choices that I don't understand, I'm afraid I'll mess up something that works well.

    I was interrupted now, so cannot continue my investigation.
    Thanks for your help.
    PS: what is a tag?

  • Smartphones Shortucts blackBerry and other issues?

    • I have my boxes in separate... separate box for e-mail, separate box for SMS, etc.  Is there a way to create a shortcut, so I can jump from the homescreen directly in the SMS Inbox without having to go to hand in box/view files/SMS in the box?

  • Memory of the Smartphone Application blackBerry and reset to the factory setting.

    So, I realized that the application memory decrease gradually. It does not benefit from memory, at the time where I remove apps. I don't understand, but my memory of the application is less than 10 MB. Yes, it's very weak. I think it's one of the reasons why my bb 3g curve was slowing down. If there is a way to get the application memory, it would be a great help.

    Because I don't know how to regain the application memory, I thought to reset the phone to factory setting? As in, such as the removal of all on the phone and so it would be like when I got my bb 3g curve. I do a backup on my computer so please tell me if this will work. Yes, the application memory.

    Thank you!

    Nevermind on this post, just realized that I'm on the wrong column.
